This holiday season, POPSUGAR Beauty tapped some of our favorite influencers, including popular brand owners, bloggers, pros, and celebrities, to share the gifts they would like to receive or give. Find more gifting inspiration here.

You can't just get 1.7 million Instagram followers unless you're pretty fabulous. Hrush Achemyan is. In addition to being a celebrity go-to makeup artist (clients include the Kardashian-Jenner family), Hrush is a star in her own right. She's frequently seen on social media rocking the sexy eyelashes, glowy skin, and neutral lip looks she helped make popular along with TV's most famous family.

Hrush also collaborated with Tarte on a limited-edition palette that we still pack for all of our weekend getaways. In between posing on glam yachts and teaching master classes, she shared her approach to holiday gift giving.

"Shopping for beauty gifts is one of my favorite things to do!" Hrush told us via email. "I always want my family and friends to look and feel their best. I try to gift them items that I use on a daily basis and items that I love and can vouch for. Enjoy!"
